For all it was good at (mostly destruction, destruction and more destruction) Sin was not precisely good at getting out of the way of large explosions, and consequently, Laharl's attack hit it rather squarely. And while even Sin was capable of realizing that the attack had hurt, it had yet to show much damage from the blow. After all, if impacting with a building hadn't caused much visible damage, why should this?

Of course, it wasn't simply going to sit idly by as it was attacked, as with a crackle, a bolt of lightning arced through the sky, streaking towards Laharl.
